TRAFFIC CONSULTATION: ANPR USE IN EAST OXFORD: The County Council is consulting on barrier removal in three locations in East Oxford, permitting through traffic provided the types of user/vehicle are exempt, although some people will still drive through despite fines. The exclusive use of ANPR (automated number plate recognition) without barriers in 3 specific locations will not help in the general effort to reduce traffic, noise, air pollution and GHG emissions as so many exempt vehicles can pass through. We need more LTNs with barriers to through traffic, not less. To get some ideas about how to respond to this consultation by 17th April, see: https://www.catg.org.uk/our-consultation-submissions/ If you would prefer to use a questionnaire, one is available, with associated documents for the consultation at: https://letstalk.oxfordshire.gov.uk/cowleyltn_cameraenforcement2023
